The desire of many consumers to drive electric and hybrid vehicles to save money and help the environment has driven manufacturers to produce more fuel-efficient vehicles. The staff at Car-Specials.com understands the ever-changing topography of the automotive industry, including the recent changes in industry standards for fuel economy, and has compiled a list of the Top Five Most Affordable Green Cars.

CARMEL, Ind. – With automakers being held to higher standards with regards to fuel economy in their vehicles, car prices have gone up as manufacturers have invested more in research and new technology to meet these standards.

The group developed a list of the Top Five Most Affordable Green cars to help online shoppers find their perfect environmentally conscious automobiles, using mpg data from manufacturers in combination with a formula using MSRP.
